Re: [IRCA] Arabic on 1160 at 1430 EST



Charlie, Your guess of WMET is pretty good.  WMET does play a lot of 
non-English stuff on the weekends especially.  In fact, they are 
running Arabic as I am typing this (1637 EST 2/4). You might also 
hear non-English programming on 1120 WUST and WBIS 1190
